As a woman trying to lose weight in peri or menopause you may be feeling frustrated because it seems like nothing is working and that weight gain is inevitable at this age.

This is simply not the case. The issue is - the things we used to do in our 20's and 30's to lose weight may no longer apply. And one of those methods is by using willpower.

In today's episode we discuss WHY willpower doesn't work for lasting weight loss and how it applies specifically to peri & menopause weight loss. And of course what to do instead.

On this episode we talk about how to have food work for you towards your weight loss goals and how certain foods can stimulate the production of GLP-1 - the active ingredient in many medications being used for weight loss.

I always recommend food and lifestyle before medications. There is a lot that can be done simply through food and lifestyle without having to resort to medications (which can come with side effects).

The side effects of managing your weight through food and lifestyle is increased energy levels, increased confidence and of course a slimmer waistline to fit comfortably into your clothes. And of course, lasting results.

Armed with the right knowledge and the right strategy, you can utilize certain foods to help weight weight loss by increasing satiety (helping you feel fuller for longer), and helping to decrease or eliminate food cravings altogether.

It is not simply calories in versus calories out, especially when it comes to alcohol.

As we enter into perimenopause you may notice that they things you used to do to lose weight are no longer working. Our body is in fact changing, and the key is in knowing how to eat to work with our changing hormones, not against them (which many restrictive diets will do).

Today we talk about the importance of eating enough protein for weight loss in perimenopause and menopause.
